Customer Review Summary
Pancakes are the draw, described as fluffy, with blueberry compote and maple butter or in the all American stack. Bagels follow, including the New Yorker, and one reviewer praised the vegan options, including pancakes with scrambled tofu. The garden and friendly staff earn mentions. One busy visit meant a long wait and a double card charge, and a staff member offered the manager's number to sort it.

“The pancakes were absolutely incredible, honestly some of the best I’ve ever had. Super fluffy, delicious, and definitely worth the wait. The place was really busy so we waited quite a while for our pancakes, but once the food arrived, we completely forgot about the wait because they were THAT good. There was also an issue with the card machine and I accidentally got charged twice, but the guy helping us was genuinely so kind and caring. He spent a lot of time checking everything for me and even offered to give me the manager’s number to make sure it got sorted properly. Such a warm, lovely person and amazing customer service, especially during such a busy time. Really lovely atmosphere, amazing food, and genuinely sweet staff, would happily go back again.”
